Tech in FSL Classroom

Stephanie Bass is currently an Elementary Core French Teacher in the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board. This is only the latest in a long string of professional accomplishments. She has worked as a social worker, bookseller, editor, manager and educational technology consultant for both private and public schools in Toronto. Personally, she has always had a keen interest in art and music. In her early 20’s, she was a professional singer and actor, appearing on albums for Hamilton artists, as well as a touring backup singer for Shania Twain in 1998. She is a musician, painter, crafter and blogger. These artistic interests drew her to Haiti as a subject for her first book for Tralco-Lingo Publishing, where the history, art and culture of Haitian people have depended on perseverance and the “do it yourself” ingenuity for centuries.
